Hey man that bike is tight. As for gas tank options....do you have a welder? That would be sick with a Diamond plate aluminium tank, I'm in the process of making one right now.

barebones, looks great! BUT,,, not to be a buzz kill, you may run into some carb problems due to the angle of your motor. Your motor needs to be mounted so the carb is level for the proper float bowl / jet function, but your mount may work fine. I will look forward to your updates.

^^^^ yea hes right. ^^^^ i never even noticed it until he mentioned it you are going to have to level that out for sure, or risk fuel starvation problems.

Ok so I'll take some suggestions then. I am still torn between doind a rounded type "bubbely" tank or a stealth style diamond shape....still can't make up my mind.....
